@historysandoval @netflix @YouTube Ooooh... and it is available in Spanish! Thanks @historysandoval for highlighting this resource. It's so hard to find good audiovisual resources in Spanish!

US history teachers. If you haven't watched @Netflix's Amend it's a MUST. They put it on @Youtube for us! I used episode 1 last week and episode 2 today for Reconstruction. CHECK IT OUT! youtube.com/watch?v=pi8ep8…

Amigues: ¿Ideas o recursos para construir una unidad sobre la Intervención estadounidense en México con perspectiva identitaria? (Any resources or ideas to build a unit on the US invasion of Mexico in the 1840s with identity focus? I have ZinnEd's mixer). ¡Gracias de antemano!

@historysandoval ¡Hola! Back on the Twitter after a few months... no, no connections in SoCal, unfortunately.

@AitorLuna know anyone in SoCal?

Any credentialed DLI (Spanish) history teachers out there looking for a job or to transfer (SoCal - IE)? Send me a DM

@mrsbyarshistory @DonorsChoose We also read this book and worked with ZH a couple of years back. I found strong parallels and connections with how we work with language learners, and it helped me have conversations with colleagues regarding work with multicultural Ss using her framework as shared language.

First summer PD read from a @DonorsChoose campaign I did to help me reflect on my teaching practices.

Today is the start of Asian Pacific American Heritage month, and I ask you (everyone not just AAPIs) to do at least one action. It’s been a tough year for AAPIs. Hear Us, See Us for who we are. I made this #AAPIHeritageMonth guide with ideas to do. Please share. #APAHM (THREAD)

@MrsPateHistory Our district has been looking at those ideas for a number of years now, and many of them have found their way into our grading policies and expected practices. Much of it seems like common sense to me, frankly, but there was also significant and ultimately ineffective pushback.

Has anyone read this book? If so what were your thoughts? :)

@historysandoval 1&9 but also 5&7&10 Reconstruction 7&10 Resistance against colonialism and white supremacy (from native nations to #BLM or #StopAAPIHate)

Their statements are, America is... 1. imperfect 2. united 3. a country of free speech 4. a country of diff. religions 5. the country of dreams 6. full of culture 7. heroism 8. diversity 9. divided 10. successful 2/4

📚📝🎨For the last few weeks of school, my EL students are doing a research/art project. To begin the project they had to finish the statement AMERICA IS.... they picked their statements, last class. Now they begin the research phase. 1/4

@semspoiler_ @DrIbram @JasonReynolds83 Moito obrigado. Ya he visto que está prevista en español, por lo menos en EEUU. Espero que llegue a todo el continente y a España pronto.

@AitorLuna @DrIbram @JasonReynolds83 Solo tenemos contacto con editoriales brasileñas. No tenemos esta información. ¡Perdon!

Em uma jornada delineando a história do racismo, esse livro apresenta como as ideias racistas começaram a surgir, de que modo se espalharam, e o que podemos fazer para que sejam extintas. “Marcados”, de @JasonReynolds83 e @DrIbram, está disponível: afl.b2w.io/aQW5

Ss explored stories of the Great Migration and connxns to our community through letters, poetry and arts, then selected panels from Jacob Lawrence's Great Migration Series to share a key takeway on @padlet - Great convos! All in Spa with Ggl transl help... …rencemigration.phillipscollection.org/the-migration-…

I gave students format options to share immigration stories from our community, most chose to adapt @historysandoval 's history bento! Gracias por la inspiración.

@historysandoval @davidtedu The Spanish edition was very useful (though I wasn't DLI last year yet).

@davidtedu did you read this with your students? Lesson?

I would like to use @GeorgeTakei's book for our WWII unit. Has anyone used it? Resources? Extra points for ELD support.

@historysandoval @davidtedu Started using it as we went virtual last year... could do better! but: Watched a Takei video (Eng & Spa), Ss looked at some pages as anticipation, read parts together, Ss created dialogue and explanations based on images, choose vignettes to illustrate main ideas we had studied.

DLI students are working in pairs doing an adaptation of the "US Mexico War Tea Party" from @ZinnEdProject, using a social media conversation template from @DitchThatTxtbk - all in Spanish!

¡Hola @jmattmiller! I translated the social media template to Spanish. Would it be ok to share it here with proper mentions and tags? Thanks for your work!

At the end of today's intro lesson about the border, which included discussing border art, students had a couple of minutes to express themselves drawing on @PearDeck. 100% engagement!

My students used a modified @eduprotocols #thinslides that I discovered thanks to @historysandoval (I ask them to add three words or thoughts - still three minutes) to activate and share our ideas about the border. We are getting faster and faster!

@SHEG_Stanford @CivicOnline ¡Sí se puede! Any plans to make curriculum available in Spanish?

Bottom line: We can help students to navigate the Internet's treacherous terrain. All of our @CivicOnline curriculum materials are available for free: cor.stanford.edu

Study after study shows that students struggle to sort fact from fiction online. How can we help? Teach them research-tested strategies. Our latest study found that students got better at spotting disinformation after a few short activities. misinforeview.hks.harvard.edu/article/latera…

My students have the chance to catch up and explore further using a @historysandoval inspired gameboard (and will visit @historyfrog's Virtual Museum of Chinese Immigration as part of it) (thinglink.com/video/93394716…). Thanks for sharing and inspiring!
